Pacific Symphony Presents Curse of the Ring at Renée and Henry Segerstrom Concert Hall

Explore the mythic world of Wagner’s first opera from the acclaimed Ring Cycle, Das Rheingold, a work that influenced Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings and inspired John Williams’ iconic Star Wars scores. Under the baton of Carl St.Clair—an accomplished Wagnerian who once conducted the entire 15-hour Ring Cycle from memory—Pacific Symphony delivers a performance filled with dramatic and powerful music. Experience an evening where gods, mermaids, and dwarves come to life with captivating storytelling and musical expression. This semi-staged production of Wagner’s Das Rheingold will be sung in German with English supertitles.
